All facets of CHICAT’s unique offerings and its principles draw strength and meaning from the connections between art and technology. Art is a necessary bridge to education, to understanding. Throughout history, artists have relied on technology to move ideas forward. In fact, the word technology stems from the Greek word “techni” which means art. CHICAT’s programming, staffing, marketing, and organizational principles stem from and build on the synergy between art, technology, and community building.
